Bounty, transportation fee, potion with extraordinary effects... Emlyn White was unable to react for a moment.

This was not the answer he expected.

Where is the gentlemanly manner? The vampire thought blankly.

As a detective, it is necessary to be able to settle accounts clearly. Moreover, you delayed my trip to the Krag Club. I wonder what the limited supply is for these two days... Klein looked at Emlyn White and muttered half-jokingly.

After a few seconds, Emlyn forced a smile and said:

“You have to see the patient to prepare the right medicine.”

Judging from his tone, he seems very confident... Klein nodded thoughtfully.

He immediately thought of a question:

The White family seems to be an excellent potion scholar. If I really get hurt or poisoned, I can come to them for treatment... The "pharmacist" formula that I worked so hard to get from Father Utravsky is useless now, right? There is no need to train another assistant who is good at treatment... Plans are not as fast as changes...

However, it is not a waste. I have already recovered the cost from Miss Magician. As long as the formula exists, it will always be valuable...

Besides, the White family will definitely move away from Riverbend Avenue and settle down again in secret. I may not be able to find them. It’s not that convenient…

No, before the hint of the "Nightmare Candle" is resolved, if you go to the Harvest Church and wait for Emlyn White...

Thinking of this, Klein took off his hat and saluted:

"No problem, I'll take you there when the time comes.

"I won't waste your time."

Emlyn White's expression changed, and he said hesitantly:

"If you can eliminate the influence of the Nightmare Candle, you can get more rewards, and..."

He paused, raised his chin and said, "And the friendship of the vampires."

I am a "magician" and I have the Sun Brooch and the Biotoxin Bottle. My use of the mental and physical level is limited to spiritualism. What can I do? Among the people I know, only Miss Justice is close, but she is only Sequence 8 and is just a "mind reader"... Unless, unless you convert to "the fool who does not belong to this era", we can study how to use the knowledge recorded in the "Book of Secrets" to help you solve this problem through the corresponding rituals... Speaking of which, vampires seem to be worshippers of the original moon, and they are very similar to the Witch King... The ancient god recorded in the City of Silver, the ancestor of vampires, Lilith, is not the original moon? Klein smiled and said with divergent thoughts:

"I'll help you keep an eye out for the corresponding measures."

Emlyn White nodded, said nothing more, turned around impatiently, and rushed to the door.

If the coachman had not been nearby, he would have spread his black bat wings and soared directly to the second floor.

Klein laughed and shook his head with emotion.

He took the same horse-drawn carriage to the nearby steam subway station and then returned to No. 15 Minsk Street in Cherwood District.

Before entering the house, Klein opened the mailbox and checked for any mail, as he had developed a habit.

To his surprise, there really was a letter.

The letter had no stamp on it and was addressed to Detective Sherlock Moriarty and signed by Jurgen Cooper.

Lawyer Jurgen? Klein picked up the envelope suspiciously and tore it open.

In the light of the street lamp, he saw a piece of paper and two banknotes inside.

The denominations of the two notes are 1 soli and 5 soli respectively.

A total of 6 soli... During this period, I fed the cat three times... The agreed amount was 2 soli each time... Klein opened the door and entered the house with a daze, then lit the gas lamp.

Unfolding the letter, he found that there was not much on it, and the words Jurgen's handwriting were just like him, meticulous, serious and restrained.

"Dear Detective Moriarty:

“Thank you for taking care of Brody during this time, this is the compensation you deserve.

"I rang the doorbell twice, but you were not at home, so I put the reward in an envelope and put it in your mailbox.

"If I don't do this, I might not be free to come until tomorrow evening, which would mean I'll miss the verbal date my grandmother promised me was tonight.

“As a lawyer, I take the validity of verbal contracts very seriously and expect them to be strictly enforced.

“Finally, thank you again.

"Jurgen Cooper."

Mr. Lawyer, your thanks are so dry and meaningless. Not as good as Brody's. Your explanation of your actions is very detailed. This is really Jurgen's standard style... Besides, why put it in a mailbox? If it were on Earth, before I traveled through time, I might not even check the mailbox downstairs for several months... Klein smiled, folded the bill, put it in his pocket, then took out a piece of letter paper and wrote a letter to Detective Stuart.

After the opening greetings, he wrote carefully:

"...I found Emlyn White in the Harvest Church near Tutva Street. It's a very small church belonging to the Church of Mother Earth, which is rare in Loen...Emlyn White claimed that he chose to run away from home because of something, and was later taken in by the bishop of the Harvest Church. He lived there and became a..."

Klein thought for a moment and wrote down the word "volunteer".

Then he said succinctly:

"After my persuasion, he has returned to 48 Riverbend Avenue, but he may often volunteer at Harvest Church."

After writing it, Klein read it through, then put down his pen and folded the letter neatly.

He took out the envelope, but did not put the corresponding stamp on it, intending to hire someone to deliver it directly to Stuart's house tomorrow.

——If the Kingdom’s postal system is used, even if the letter is placed in the mailbox now, it will not be picked up until tomorrow, and there will be processes such as sorting and delivery. Therefore, although Stuart is in the royal capital Backlund, he will have to wait until at least the day after tomorrow to see the letter and notify the White couple. Emlyn White is now a penniless guy with only a puppet.

This is also to receive the reward as soon as possible... Klein chuckled, tidied up the coffee table, and went back to the second floor to brush his teeth and take a bath.

…………

On Wednesday morning, after spending 2 soli to entrust a hired carriage driver to deliver a letter, Klein bought some main ingredients for the Dixie seafood rice and planned to make egg fried rice today.

Thinking of the white rice grains, he couldn't help swallowing his saliva.

After spending some time and fiddling with the utensils and the kitchen, he finally made a pot of fragrant egg fried rice, which he paired with pickled meat and black tea. He almost cried while eating it.

It was such a nostalgic and touching taste... After finishing two large plates of egg fried rice, Klein slumped in his chair and stroked his stomach.

In the case of Emlyn White, because the other party did not play by the rules, his performance ended before it really began, and he failed to achieve the expected purpose. Therefore, he could only look for another opportunity to actively perform.

Klein did not gain nothing from this. Failure was also an experience, which at least made him understand one thing:

"Unlike ordinary magicians, my 'performance' not only involves assistants, but also enemies and participants. Their reactions and choices will also affect the development of things, and these factors must be taken into account in advance...

"This can be considered a lesson. It is better to learn a lesson from such a small matter than to be taught a lesson on some important matters..."

Klein looked at the empty plate in front of him and thought about what other "performances" he could take the initiative to perform.

After thinking about it carefully for a while, he found that there was none.

Of course, it’s not to say that there is absolutely no possibility, but it’s just not suitable for him to do it now.

For example, Klein had always wanted to deal with the evil spirit in the ruins of the Tudor Dynasty in the Fourth Epoch. However, even with Sharon, who possessed the "Crimson Moon Crown", and Maric, who had obtained the remaining characteristics of the out-of-control "Wrathful Spirit", he did not think that he and his men could fight against high-sequence monsters. They might not even know how they died.

Taking the initiative to perform does not mean taking the initiative to die, nor does it mean risking your life to perform... Klein warned himself in his heart.

There was another thing he really wanted to do, but he didn't think he had any chance.

The matter was to find Will Auceptin, a strange kid who brought bad luck to surgeon Allen.

Klein had always been interested in the deck of tarot cards in the other person's hand and wanted to confirm whether it was a magical item.

Unfortunately, this matter has been taken over by the Nighthawks, and Klein doesn't really want to get involved in the actions of his former colleagues.

While Dr. Allen is resting, he will go to the Krag Club to inquire about the progress, and then decide what to do... Klein's idea quickly took shape.

As far as he knew, Dr. Allen was usually free on Friday afternoons and Sundays and would go to the Cragg Club to play tennis.

And just now, Klein also confirmed one thing through today's Backlund Morning Post, that is, there will be a gathering of Beyonders convened by Mr. Wisdom Eye tomorrow night.

For the time being, we cannot sell the “Werewolf” Beyonder characteristic or the biological toxin bottle, and we cannot even find someone to make the former into a magical item... The high-sequence experts of the Rose School must still be active nearby, and they must be full of anger, and can’t wait to find and tear apart Sharon, Maric, and their helpers... We have to keep a low profile on this aspect for the time being... Klein picked up the napkin, wiped his mouth, and began to clean up the table.

He originally thought that since he had no chance to perform, he would take a break today and spend a leisurely day at the Krag Club. However, he remembered Amon's clone who could detect the gray fog and try to infiltrate it, and remembered the role played by the Book of Secrets in that crisis.

So Crane lit the fireplace in the living room and brought the Book of Secrets back to the real world. He then read it attentively, pondered it carefully, and took notes.

Of course, he would burn the corresponding notes on the gray fog afterwards.

Before he knew it, it was noon and he suddenly heard the doorbell ringing.

After hiding the Book of Secrets, Klein entered the living room and headed straight for the door.

The visitor was Detective Stuart, a thin-faced and bearded man.

He looked at Klein with great respect and excitement, and couldn't wait to praise him:

"You are indeed a great detective with abundant resources and channels. You can solve a missing person case like this one without any clues so quickly!"

...Why do I feel that my spirituality has changed slightly? It seems that the potion has been digested a little more... In other words, my "performance" was successful in some ways, but the only audience was this person in front of me, and he was the only one who was deceived and only saw the good results... "The audience's applause" really works... Klein was stunned and smiled enthusiastically.
